First, congratulations, again! Second - seven days seem to stretch like a year right now!

Expected Delivery of "Offerings for Ordinary Gods" on July 29th... that's too long, but worth the wait!

@alwayscoffee.bsky.social @auntiekristy.bsky.social @nrlines.bsky.social I just caught something for y'all.

Have you seen Jolt? The movie got not much in the surprise department, but the woman rage thing? Shelves fully stocked. 😂

without downloading new pics (oi, that's kinda limiting my options there!), describe your gender with one image.

#amwriting #writerslife #conanthebarbarian Forgive me, I am a simple man with simple joys. Also, my apologies to all #editors out there. 😅

Conan meme, but:
"Conan, what is best in life?"

It should have been the word coffee made from coffee cup emojis. It looked better on pc. Still not good, admittedly. But the effort counts, no? 😭😭😶‍🌫️

#bread #sourdough #writerslife I made this. I am a bit proud, not gonna lie.

The Inigo Montoya meme, but the text reads:

My name is Inigo Montoya.
You insulted Mexican food.
Prepare to die.

#amwriting #writerslife #writerstears You have a muse. I quench my thirst for inspiration with writer's tears, their fiery laments rolling down my tongue, scorching my throat and birthing words anew from my ink-black heart. We are not the same.

A bottle of Writer's Tears and a whiskey tumbler.

#lookup #sky #clouds Who ordered the overdramatic evening sky? 👀 @nrlines.bsky.social @auntiekristy.bsky.social @alwayscoffee.bsky.social @floregonian.com

Evening sky over Austria, sun flaring bright rays through greyish clouds, tinting the horizon light bronze

I just realized I didn't show you all the #bread I made lately. I know, you are all here for my #writing, but who can say no to a lovely piece of bakery? Behold the works of my household, the deliciousness I pulled out of the oven!

Three goldbrown baguettes and an array of rolls with sunflower seeds, cheese and black & white sesame on them. All baked to PERFECTION (you can't convince me otherwise).

I mean... it's not even that long, but it still aches a little? ^^

#booksky #delight #sidequested #comic It is here! It came late, or early, or at exactly the time it decided to. But the important thing - it is here! And regarding the book exclusive... I may have uttered "NO FUCKING WAY!" with a big grin on my face. Yeah, you need this in your life.

Will you look at the beauty of this water I just walked over? #amwriting #inspiration #writerslife #notJesus #therewasabridge

The river Enns with trees on its banks and a bridge in the background.
The water has all the colors of green glass.

I don't want to rain on anyone's parade (AND NO BLAME WHATSOEVER TO ANYONE HERE!!!💖), and it is absolutely worth the wait, but if you preordered at the zon, especially if you planned to gift the book to someone, check your delivery dates, just as a PSA. 👀🙄😭

Preorder for SideQuested Book 1, delivery date shifted from 25th of March to 2nd of Oktober.

Stowing away the thick winter jacket might have been more hopeful than prudent.

Morris Wayts@morriswayts· Mar 20

I absolutely did!

I got tempted... forgive me.

Oh, I am not sure either, but this reads like it was his decision. www.newsbreak.com/superherohyp...

Sources say 20th Television and Searchlight Television responded positively to the revised script. Internal discussions pointed toward an imminent pickup. Despite this, Erwich made the final decision to pass on the project. Some sources suggested the updated version was too expensive. Others indicated it still did not meet the standard set by the original series.

Gellar stated, “No one saw this coming, including the head of Searchlight,” and described receiving the cancellation call just before appearing on stage at SXSW. She also said, “We had an executive on our show who was not only not a fan of the original, but was proud to constantly remind us that he had never seen the entirety of the series and how it wasn’t for him” (via PEOPLE). Sources identified the executive as Erwich.

The timing of the decision drew criticism, with sources calling it “misguided” and “terrible,” while noting there was no deadline forcing a cancellation despite waiting for an outcome.

Did the NYT quiz because I wanted to know if I am able to see the difference. Turns out I am, even from those short text pieces. Glad about it as well. 👀😅
